It works like advertised. Smaller footprint is space saving and the sound is greatly improved over the M2 Pro. It is noticeably faster, however the M2 Pro meet my needs. I use the Pro for multiple displays. With the smaller footprint I take the mini with me while I travel to work.

The performance is so great for its size that I'm returning it for the base model. Don't get me wrong. Nothing is wrong with the Pro model. However, for its price, I've overestimated the amount of performance per dollar I needed out of the Mac Mini.

This tiny Mac is a monster. It plays all my MacOS Steam games like a dream and does everyday tasks instantly while being whisper quiet.

Awesome! Runs fast and great. I am very happy with this. The folks at Apples were great and fast in helping me set it up. You can't go wrong with Apple products.

I bought the M4 chip in this new Mac so that I could go through and re-organize photographs that date back four years downloading them from my GoPro to my 4K Sony camcorder it really handle the job well and did it like a breeze. I’m very happy I have it thumbs up.

For its tiny size, this computer is a BEAST. Way more than enough for the average consumer, and definitely a solid device for people with more intensive tasks.

I have to say this is one of the most remarkable devices that’s been made in the last few years! This computer is so powerful and efficient it blows my mind. Apple Silicon has come a long way in the last few years and this is the biggest leap forward since M1 chips were released in 2020. I have to say that this is definitely worth the upgrade. There’s nothing this machine can’t do. That’s something that you definitely couldn’t say a few years ago, but can now safely say today which is pretty remarkable. I highly recommend this computer!

The new mini is a beast! It will crush some pretty demanding workloads and has saved me a bunch of time already. I will say that I do wish Best Buy had more variations available; I would have liked to purchase the 14-core version with more RAM. I wanted to use the Best Buy card for 0% interest, but next time I’ll probably just buy direct from Apple.

To sum it all up, I had fallen out of love with Windows as an operating system and could no longer ignore the glaring security issues , as well as incoming windows 11 changes that make those issues even harder to ignore. I decided to switch to mac being that i have grown to love stability in my day to day operations. While gaming is slowly improving in the mac space, i bought this mostly for productivity sake (i have consoles for gaming). The learning curve is not too steep for most tasks and if you have an iphone or another apple product, setup is seemless. The way everything just WORKS together is pretty amazing. Loving it so far and not missing windows.

Amazing power in such a small package! Barely bigger than an Apple TV while being a fully functional desktop computer with excellent specs. Bought instead of a MacBook Pro with the same specs and saved a ton because I always use mine in the living room and I can just leave this connected to the TV and use it when I need.

Amazing little box! Fast reliable little powerhouse. Purchased for recording music, and voice overs. Doesn't come with magic mouse or keyboard so invest in those first if you don't have a reliable IOS keyboard and mouse.

Incredible! Apple products are so great. The way their computers integrate with your other Apple products is unmatched. Using a Mac helps avoid all the stupid issues you get with a PC. No viruses, no frozen screens or spam. Its awesome.

So far I have had not one issue with this Mac Mini and is exactly what I wanted... I video edit and picture edit and this is perfect. I use Davinci Resolve 19 and this is no lag on this machine yet I don't do really intensive effects yet but what I have done so far this little desktop tears though it... sometimes I press render and before I look up it 75% done...

As a creator working with 4k video, photo editing, photoshop and illustrator it does not get better than this. it handles everything with a breeze all the same time. Even the Base pro model is more than enough for most creatives. Best value per dollar in computing power.
